Trading Symbol: JSP (TSX-V) CALGARY, March 27 /CNW/ - Jasper Mining Corporation is pleased to announce its 2006 field program. The drilling operations in British Columbia depend on the rate at which the snow pack recedes to higher elevations. Jasper intends to commence its field operations on its McFarlane/Lydy properties as early as the middle of April 2006. The 2005 geochemical soils program documented a strong molybdenum anomaly in soils. It is the Company's intention to drill several diamond drill holes on this molybdenum anomaly. This anomaly is adjacent to the Eagle Planes molybdenum discovery on its Sphinx Project. In early May, Jasper intends to drill the lower elevations of its Erie Creek property. The drill targets are indicated by anomalies shown on Jasper's airborne geophysical survey delivered to Jasper in early 2006. The drill locations will be in the area of the previously reported mineralized lead zinc silver surface shows on the property which coincides with the geophysics. A second drill target on the Erie Creek property is a vein indicated geophysical feature which could be a continuation of the Second Relief gold mine, which lies just to the north east of Jasper's property. In mid May the Company plans to drill its Isintok property. Jasper has previously reported a documented resource estimate (though not 43/101 compliant) of 23 million tonnes of copper and molybdenum. The drill program for the Isintok Property will be tailored to expand this potential resource. This drilling will be based upon the detailed airborne geophysical survey received in late 2005 by Jasper. The Company made a significant graphite discovery on its Vowell/Vermont Creek property in 2005, and intends to drill some deeper diamond drill holes on the two graphite trends. Jasper will also test several anomalies that could indicate lead zinc silver deposits. Jasper has reported a lead zinc silver resource (though not 43/101 compliant) from Jasper's closed Ruth Vermont Mine which is situated on Jasper/Vowell (Vermont) Creek properties. As soon as access and weather conditions permit, Jasper intends to obtain airborne geophysical data on its Irony Property and commence a diamond drilling program on that property. Selkirk Metals has announced a significant high grade discovery on their Ruddock Creek Property. Selkirk's Ruddock Creek Property immediately adjoins Jasper's Irony Property. Selkirk is building a four kilometre road and camp on Jasper's claims. This road will give access to Jasper's drilling targets. The Irony project is a high priority project for Jasper and the company expects to be able to commence drilling operations in August 2006. Jasper's Cascade Property, which the Company believes has the potential to contain high grade gold veins, based on historical minfile data and work done by Cream Minerals on their adjoining property, is expected to be diamond drilled sometime during the summer of 2006. Jasper intends to carry out prospecting and geophysical and geochemical surveys on its other 15 properties as time and other resources permit during the 2006 field season. Jasper has exclusively contracted a diamond drilling rig and crew for the whole 2006 field season and expects to be able to drill approximately 20,000 metres of diamond drill core on all of its properties.
